Tag 11

Today Ashley had to read a bunch of pages in her books for her classes so we stayed in and relaxed. 

This is on the inside of the bathroom door in Ashley's dorm... they are stickers from 90s bands and other things

W.C. is the German term for toilet, literally meaning "water closet..." This is above the toilet


When Ashley went to her classes, I chilled for a little while and then went out to take a walk.


There is tons of anti-Nazi graffiti in Germany... this one goes as far as to say "Save Israel" (I wasn't aware it was in danger from anything)... Above the words you can see an image of someone stamping on and breaking a swastika

Although people are still wary about being patriotic in Germany, since the Euro 2008 soccer tournament is going on, almost every car has German flags in the windows... We even saw one mini-van with 6 flags driving by once...

After that we went to a nice Italian restaurant for dinner where Ashley told me a certain item was tomato sauce but it turned out to be chunks of ham...

Tomorrow we go to Thüringen (a state of Germany), home of the famous Thüringer Wald (Thuringian Forest)... specifically the city of Ilmenau. Then, the next day, we go to Eisenach, which is also a town in Thüringen.
